About exoisition of Dr. Maldonado


Hello everybody today I want tell you about the exposition of Dr. Maldonado. Was very interesting for me, because the neuroscience it´s a camp very confusing, and a lot of issues aren´t founded yet. I thought that the size of the human brain was proportional whit the intelligence of the people, was complicate for me explain how some people have a big head and was very naive, so now understand very well, it´s more important the number of neuronal connections that the size of the human brain, Albert Einstein is considered a genius and his size of head was small, that explain a lot of things, also learned that us brain can´t use all areas simultaneously, some illness like epilepsy doing this and the consequences are very unfortunate, are a disorganization of the functions and the people can´t doing coordinate moves or have a paralysis of members .
This knowledge it´s important for all student of health because the area of neuroscience covers all camp of medicine, especially in Physical therapy and Obstetrics, we have to face whit patient and maybe they have any alteration of nervous system, the midwife maybe have to explain the development of nervous system of new born at mother, or maybe explain how she can stimulate the brain of her baby, also when the women begin the old age a midwife can explain about illness of nervous system in this age at women. A Midwife have to know the change of nervous system during pregnancy, and new sensations and emotions that occur during the process.

Southamerican Congress of Obstetrics.


Hello everybody today I want tell you about my experience in a 3er southamerican congress of Obstetrics, organized for University of Frontera and the college of Midwife.
Well, the first thing I want to say is that all should go to these activities, the president of college of midwife in the last exposition said: “if we aren´t together, we never can obtain achievement”.
When started the congress all Universities and important visit was presented, and I was impressed whit University of Concepción because led about more of one hundred students, and the University of Valdivia led a lot of students too, also I impress for the effort of the University of Antofagasta for be present in the congress.
I like very much the topics of the expositions, because was very related with the actually of us profession, like VIH, ITS, HPV, etc. many issues very interesting for us, and one of the most impressive for me, was the experience of the man midwife that participated in the program America solidaria and go to Haiti after the earthquake and how the limit of the human are proof, was very interesting. Also I impressed like student of the first years in the career can made a investigation of the sexual and reproductive health of the students in the first year of University, in the University Austral, because they made a very good work and was winners in the best investigation of sexual and reproductive work in the congress. One thing was caught my attention was that University of Chile because not present any work investigation, between the students of University of Chile, three are in your last year of career, and they was not presented your investigation because they thought that the investigations most be complete and revised for a teacher, but it was not. When I talk whit my partners of the investigations works was presented in a congress, all thought that at University of Chile the level is very good, and when I dismiss of the president of the college of Midwife, she ask me why University of Chile not presented investigations works, and I said all true, that us thought that the investigations works most be complete and revised for a teacher of the University, and the students of 5to are very careful whit your works because at University of Chile is very strict, and she say, well my friend you are right, at University of Chile is very strict, but the next years the congress is at University of Chile so you can show that level.
Well this wonderful experience was unique, and I think that all people stay there think alike

Pregnancy clinics 'should be set up in schools'



Hello everybody today I speak about an article of if pregnancy clinics 'should be set up in schools'.
National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence wants midwives to advise young mothers in school.
There are many opinions about this issue, exist controversial postures because some people say that is the way how the teenage pregnancy increase and others say that is the way how we can help and provide a heath service. The evidence shows that pregnant women under 20 often feel excluded from mainstream antenatal care and judged by their peers, so we need help to these women’s. But the critics said the idea could "normalize" teenage pregnancy and increase the problem.
Other factor that promote help this women`s is that young women aged under 20 may be reluctant to recognize their pregnancy or inhibited by embarrassment and fear of parental reaction, so this promote that the women`s can revives few information and may can do prejudicial acts.
Norman Wells, director of the family Education Trust, think that in the school is not the perfect place for give this care antenatal and the school is a place for imparting knowledge and teaching children to think in a rational and logical way, this is the objective of the school, and is not correct shoulder the burden of problems created by a permissive society in the school, because is not the objective.
Actually some 40,000 births per year happen in women under the age of 20 although there are no exact figures on how many of these access antenatal care and The risk of stillbirth and a baby dying in the first six weeks of life is also around twice as high for women from deprived backgrounds.
So the controversial point is latent in the society and there are varieties of opinions. In my opinion the idea of give care antenatal in the school can may normalize this situation, but we need found the way how doing this out of the school because is very necessary for the young women`s.
